Happy fifteenth birthday a day late to our beloved Ying, the rotten dog who got the whole house up at four thirty in the morning.
How are we all holding up?
Yeah, me too.
Okay, so, two different QTreepers posted this video on Wednesday, so, the third time being the charm, here it is again just in case you missed it:
In the rush to question the thirty percent principle, the larger picture was kind of sidelined: the conservative ecosystem. The other side calls it an echo chamber, but the truth is starting with Rush Limbaugh on radio, and then the development of the first conservative chat site Free Republic (still going strong after twenty-five years), conservatives were finally able to find each other in the age of the internet. Prior to that, you could be sitting next to one on a trans-Atlantic flight and not know it.
There are far more of us than not, and as more and more websites and social media platforms run by patriots, not the alphabet soup agencies, popped up and continue to pop up, a much larger network, an ecosystem, is solidifying in the space that the legacy media used to occupy.
That has the other side scared to death.
No longer is the truth buried in the periodicals in a library with stacks of hard bound journal volumes. Nope. Now it is online, and can go from a hush hush secret to a full blown viral meme in far less time than a news cycle would occupy.
The truth can no longer be truly censored even if they’re still trying to do so.
Not sure where he landed.
Is it just me, or does this look like Uncle Joe is in front of a green screen?
Don’t forget.

There’s a lot of reasons to give J.K. Rowling the side eye, but this is not one of them.

And belittling real men while they are at it.
The phrase “for the greater good” is so being misused.
Because “for the greater good” is going to end up here:
And more of this is going to happen:
Although, in Paris, the enforcers of the mandates bring their own camera booms.
Score another for the conspiracy crowd:
Wanna know how the Rockefellers got into the propaganda business? This thread walks the reader through the history without the mind-numbing rhetoric I read in college.
LANGUAGE WARNING! But, still, Make-a-Wish Foundation is on the naughty list after watching this.
And the question of the day:
It always boils down to that.
And, finally, I meant to put this in yesterday’s daily. On Tuesday, MonkeyWerx did a breaking SitRep that’s worth considering since things are heating up with Russia and Ukraine. He goes into it on his Wednesday SitRep as well.

ISAIAH 54:1-10
1“Sing, O barren one, who did not bear; break forth into singing and cry aloud, you who have not been in travail! For the children of the desolate one will be more than the children of her that is married, says the LORD. 2Enlarge the place of your tent, and let the curtains of your habitations be stretched out; hold not back, lengthen your cords and strengthen your stakes. 3For you will spread abroad to the right and to the left, and your descendants will possess the nations and will people the desolate cities. 4“Fear not, for you will not be ashamed; be not confounded, for you will not be put to shame; for you will forget the shame of your youth, and the reproach of your widowhood you will remember no more. 5For your Maker is your husband, the LORD of hosts is his name; and the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer, the God of the whole earth he is called. 6For the LORD has called you like a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit, like a wife of youth when she is cast off, says your God. 7For a brief moment I forsook you, but with great compassion I will gather you. 8In overflowing wrath for a moment I hid my face from you, but with everlasting love I will have compassion on you, says the LORD, your Redeemer. 9“For this is like the days of Noah to me: as I swore that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth, so I have sworn that I will not be angry with you and will not rebuke you. 10For the mountains may depart and the hills be removed, but my steadfast love shall not depart from you, and my covenant of peace shall not be removed, says the LORD, who has compassion on you.

Another very fine post, although it did leave me with a question — what did Ying do to wake everyone up, and did it just wake the house or did it do anything?
Probably those annoying little yaps they make when they are compensating for their dwarf status. Like the super-annoying screeches my cat makes when he thinks he can go out at night (he ends up in the garage where nobody can hear him).
Annoying? No. A tyrant. Yes. BUT, when you come home, you’re always a hero to a Havanese.
I was not specifically referring to Ying; was thinking about all those other tyrants I see every time I park in the Cripple Car space at the supermarket. Invariably, they furiously bark at me as I’m exiting my car even though I have done nothing unusual toward them. So I figure they’re just doing a dog version of short man syndrome.
Because the little tyrant wanted the Couch Commando to get up and go downstairs to be with her.
She’s gotten really clingy since Yang died.
And she woke everyone up for this?
Yes.
My cat Brad Purrsley wants me to stand by him and watch him eat kibble. When he finishes, he likes to cover up the bowl with the tablecloth. I accidentally started this by initially buying a big bag of salmon cat food when he preferred chicken/turkey. Who knew? He ate the salmon kibble but was so thrilled when I figured out he liked chicken/turkey best. Now every day he lets me know I’ve corrected my error. 😅
How sweet 🙂
My cat let’s me know she is hungry by trying to eat the horse feed pellets. The ponies are NOT amused.
And Yes she gets enough to eat. I had to put her on a diet because she was getting very cubby. (She is fixed) She gets the max amount of kibble a day per the package instructions plus all the mice and rabbits she can catch.
My cats have an automatic feeder and can eat whenever they like. In the evening they get a half can each of cat food.
They are not fat and really do not eat so much.
Awwwww … 🥺❤️ ..
For Ying 😁

Everyone else gets sticks 😋


Or fries 😋 😋


Or KETO friendly 😉 ☺
Mmm…yum!

Want!

SECONDED!!!
And I can not have SALT….

I just went out and bought a 12 pound pork roast as compensation. It is now slow roasting with lots of herbs and spices.
What was interesting is the store had hams on sale for $0.99/lb and the butcher was telling a vendor he just can not sell them. On the other hand I just bought the last pork shoulder that were also on sale at a dollar more per pound as well as the last two chuck roasts… AT 6:00 AM!
I love ham! I buy the big spiral-sliced ones on sale, pull it all off the bone, and freeze it in smaller packages for sandwiches, omelets, and stuff. Then I use the bone to make a huge batch of beans, and I freeze them, too. A ham goes a long way. The weirdest use I have found is in pasta with pesto. It is fantastic.
When I could eat ham I did that too. Now I am stuck with pork I season myself. — 🍾 — I just poured a 1/2 cup of wine over that pork roast. 😊
Yum. Sounds awesome!
Well it sure smells good!
You’re teasing me. Now I’m hungry, and it’s not even 10 am! And yes, breakfast was an hour ago.
I just poured more wine and seasoning on it. It should be ready to eat in about a 1/2 hour to an hour. (I am slow cooking it.)
I played Bother Lorenz of the Kitchen 🙂
I made two German Stollen prepping for Christmas. I did not buy almonds that were peeled and chopped I did my ritual of soaking hand chopping. Prayer interwoven all calm and intentionally slow. How I enjoy prepping for holidays planning and executing for two people 🙂
The joy of little things. I am so much more aware and enjoy the gratefulness of the season. Not going out much being more in the house and around the house has such blessings 🙂 I am grateful for a warm house enough food to prep for festivity. I am even looking forward to Lent and enjoying fasting more seclusion.
For myself I a new way of being.
Love you guys here you make life even better.
This is the season to forgive begin anew.
Everyday is a blessing and a gift from God.
Beautiful sweet 🎶singing🎶❤️
beautiful ..
🌲 ❤ 🙂
When can I come for dinner?
Missed it.
The ‘left-overs’ are now carved off the bone, bagged and in the freezer. I freeze the bone too and add it to the beans when I am simmering the bean soup.
And yes it was yummy.
🙂 Maybe next time!
I bet it was yummy 🙂
I still have ham in the freezer . I am going to use it for my canned peas soup. I had made broth from the bone then added vegetables and peas. Is nice to have already finished soup just open the glass.
I have some turkey soup still in the freezer I need to use up.
So far it has been WARM so not ‘soup weather’. Highs in the 70s for the next few days although there was frost on the windshield this morning.
We had some really cold damp weather. I made an Onion soup the other day with bone broth. Even made a french bread for it. Was so good and clears the sinuses 🙂
Lucky you still warm weather.
I love ham also. This is the only time of year I can ever find boneless. Went to multiple stores only to find 2 small Smithfield 😡 pre-thinly-sliced boneless hunks. I like the big hunks where I slice myself, how else ya gonna make cubes?? Maybe they’ll get more in. 🤞 Still mad that they add brown sugar to every last ham on the planet.🤬 Totally unnecessary.
I agree 100% about the sugar!
I get the little ham steaks. They’re thick enough one could cube them and I can avoid Smithfield since China bought them. sigh… There are still other pork producers in the US, thank God.
Yeah but who wants congressional pork?
Anyone who employs a lobbyist.
Snicker…
I still have my carving board and knife out.

O’Keefe has also been posting this:

Hrmmm seems like something is in the works already and some final touches need to be made. We don’t even have to look close to see the rats scurrying for their holes.
Given some of the stuff I was aware of around here, I have ZERO doubt some in Child Protective Services were colluding with child predators.
No hard evidence except a pair of KNOWN lesbian drug dealers trying to get custody of children from several different families.
I think we’ve suspected/ran stories on CPS in certain States like California that allow perps to run their own stables given changes in their laws there. Can’t remember exactly what it was but it jiggled the ages much lower so prostitution was harder to detect when minors were involved.

To what I referred to earlier about child prostitution. A 2016 Article that we covered at the time it was happening.
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/california-democrats-legalize-child-prostitution
Zero Trust for CPS in California and as I remember there were other states that were mysteriously loosing children at the time under the watch of their respective CPSs.
This like so many other things have never gotten a strong second look in the national media given the continuous onslaught of high impact news. The left has indeed flooded the zone with their depravity in all aspects of America.
Happy Hunting Project Veritas!
Why should the media report on it when they are BUYING it?
Two CNN producers now.
At the time SNOPES, may they rot in hell, labeled the stories Mostly false. Saying they provided victim status to those caught. But the argument back is they also put child prostitution under the secretive umbrella of CPS. So its they that know the children who have engaged in such and now provide them anonymity while putting them in what homes, to be used, is anyone’s guess. It has all the markings of organized crime, but instead of the mob, the state controls it.

from the comments in the tweet.
We brought our sons to WDW .. aka Wally Word .. a lot. It was an easy drive and they had good accommodations. However one time I took the younger son/toddler to their kids station some I could change and feed him. I noticed a lot of kids in there and it struck me, what if these kids were dropped off so the parents were going through the park w/o their kids, then a darker thought was what if this was a place people could pick up kids. Makes me sick … kids would be there all day
stuff Disney and the rat he rode in on ..
Disney knows now doesn’t he … 🔥
absolutely revolting, depraved….and alarming.
can’t get much lower than that.
smh in utter disgust.
kids are endangered, no doubt about it.
a very squeamish topic…so difficult to wrap our minds around something so perverse…and so prevalent, these days.

If there were a wager, I’d bet it goes all the way to, Zucker.
From what we have seen of Hollywood, I would think that is a VERY SURE BET.

That is correct, those who uncovered this felony are the ones headed for prison!!!

EXACTLY!
It is how they keep the vicious fucks under control via blackmail.
And since when referring to the MSM we call it the mocking bird media, we can be fairly well assured pockets of this kind of behavior is prevalent through out the entire industry. In fact it shouldn’t surprise us if FOX gets outed in some sort of get even scheme.
This one is rough. Disgusting. I had a hard time listening to it.
That one is mild compared to what Jaco Booyens reports. His sister as a teen was lured (She was a singer) and then trafficked. He rescued her and has now dedicated his life in hunting these predators down.
He said: “The youngest child we’ve rescued…was 2 years old. 34 men raped that 2-year-old over a 36-day period.”
That is bad enough but what is MUCH WORSE is our JUST-US let this filth off very lightly. In some cases the new laws say the victim must SAY they were raped, but the predator does such a ‘mind fuck’ on these kids, that they think they DESERVE the treatment they get and therefore do not think of it as rape.
@BooyensJaco
“76,000 kids [are] trafficked per day in Texas…We’re talking about slavery at proportions like we’ve never seen in history.”
@BooyensJaco
says over ½ a million children are victims of #Trafficking every single day in the US.
“When it comes to sex trafficking, you’ve got backroom deals, you’ve got plea deals, you’ve got misdemeanors.”
@BooyensJaco
says sex #Trafficking laws are not being enforced in the US
“If that woman, at 24…was coerced as a 12-year-old? She’s not a prostitute. She’s a victim.” He explains that many prostitutes are really victims of child sex . [Just as that lady said]

It makes me a bit ill even posting this, but I believe that the horrors of child sex trafficking are reality we have to face as a society in order to actually stop this.
Yes, I have read so much about it.
I am myself a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. After much therapy, I have mostly healed. But these stories pick open old wounds.
I think a lot of women are. A lot more than the statistics acknowledge.
BTDT & have the scars.
🙁
❤
The punishment for these heinous crimes against babies/children should be “gelding” and cutting off any and all appendages.
Alll together now .. 🎶
Hands, fingers, ?knees? and toes … (nose will do)
Gelding for sure. Anyone who has handled farm animals will tell you gelding will calm a male right down….
Agree
What animals go after kids? That is so primitive so vile.
Life’s quandaries, #62,647 —
Does JP have his own lingerie stash, or does he just raid his wife’s collection?
Corollary #12 — regardless of which method he uses, does he actually understand the black art of bra sizes? From what I can tell, retailers stamp random numbers and designations onto packages that have nothing whatsoever to do with actual female anatomy.
You’d think that the really expensive ones would at least be more comfortable.
They’re not.
😕
And underwires are a torture, imho.
I know this much, at least. Honestly, I see something like “38D, lift and support, athletic, underwire” and I think, “W. T. F. are they even talking about?”
Mind you, if I wanted to get seriously injured and scientific about this, I could haunt bra stores and pop-up with a microphone when someone touched one of these packages, asking the potential customer just what they were thinking…..
Mind you, there are probably parts of it that are just as sensible as shoe sizes being measured in barleycorns….no, really: “The barleycorn is an old English unit that equates to 1⁄3 inch (8.47 mm). This is the basis for current UK and North American shoe sizes, with the largest shoe size taken as twelve inches (a size 12) i.e. 30.5 cm, and then counting backwards in barleycorn units, so a size 11 is 11.67 inches or 29.6 cm.” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoe_size]
There is an art to it and fitting them. I can give a lecture, but will spare you.
I ken a trifling bit of this art, but so far as I know it has nothing to do with what is written on packages. If you can further enlighten me, please do.
And I’m really kind o’ groovin’ on “Build-A-Bra-Workshops” in upscale malls where they’d be assembled to fit properly.
I’m sure you would be.
The number is the band size, which is the measurement around the torso right under the, uh, you get it. The letter is a measurement around the full heft of them, and then you subtract the band size to give you the differential which tells you what letter you need.
Sports bras are really just bands to hold them in place while exercising, which really, for cardio and lymph drainage should be avoided. As for the rest…we ladies do need to have some secrets.
To start with — to me, the most erotic part of a woman is a mischievous happy grin. Bra parameters are technical bits that (hopefully) contribute to that goal.
Everyone knows that band size is the measurement around the chest under the boobs. Already, this is significantly imprecise — is it below any breast tissue? is it below any significant breast tissue? is it below any observable breast tissue? Should it be be measured standing, lying down, or suspended upside down?
Frankly, your description of “letter” makes no sense to me. I’d always understood it to mean “cup size” — AKA “volume” — a 3D measurement which is difficult to map to any single parameter. I had no idea that “heft” and “differential” had anything to do with it.
What gets me is that we have he technology available to do much better with this. Bra fitting should measure outlines and spacing, preferred shaping and density, weights and flexures, and deliver engineered solutions far superior to what bra shops deliver today — for a wide variety of use cases, including jumping horses.
You shouldn’t have to purchase a bundle of bras when one “just happens” to work for you. You should have parameters to specify a bra and expect every one that meets those parameters to work.
And then, maybe, us guys can concentrate on those other female secrets that lead to a mischievous grin.
The measurement differential gives you the cup size.
Finding the right fit is trial and error. We’re all shaped differently, and pregnancy changes a lot about the positioning, and density, I understand. So, it’s trial and error, and can take a lot of time trying on different styles until you find one or two that work.
NJ women created first sports bra in 1977
Oh, and the other thing, you need more than one simply to allow the spandex to shrink back to size. They have to sit at least twenty-four hours.
One should go to a bra store and properly fitted. Some of the more upscale store do that and specially the person helping is an experienced person . Some stores even want you to try on the bra to make sure it fits properly.
Do it and go national .. you’ll be a hero .. 😉👍
It’s happening.

Check out the Seinfeld episodes where Kramer and George’s dad were working on the “Bro” and the “Mansier” 😂
Wheatie,
I do surgery on mine to add more (and broader) elastic shoulder straps since the darn things are NOT built for a woman with shoulder muscles.
I am probably going to be hefting around ten fifty pound feed sacks again today. I have been lifting hay bales and feed sacks since jr high and could easily beat the guys in arm wrestling until we hit high school.
Yeah I can imagine how uncomfortable those thin straps would be for you, cutting into your shoulder muscles.
😬 😟
Those straps are uncomfortable even if you don’t have much in the way of shoulder muscles.
😏
I am not exactly ‘small’ up front and those thin straps are quite painful.
I even broke one of the darn things while going over a 5 ft jump on my thoroughbred. The strap did not survive the landing — OUCH!!
ah…
the terrible bullet (torpedo) bra of yesteryear…
a film noir essential !
I actually tried one of those on one time. Yeah, no.
I always figured they stuffed them with cotton.😋
Some might have been, but the one I tried on really did reflect that shape.
OUCH!
Not even an attractive look.
From the other comments here, it’s a unanimous “good riddance.”
I’m surprised they aren’t just sold by the piece, to be assembled. I have never heard a woman say, “oh, this bra is just right.”
When you find one that actually fits, you buy several. Trust me.
AMEN!!!
And then you carefully wash them by hand so they do not wear out.
Once you get the underwire molded right, they are livable so long as you don’t gain or lose weight.
women should design/manufacture jock straps … level the playing field
Actually, the first modern foundation garment for women was designed by a woman, a New York socialite, who patented her design and later sold it.
Leaving that filed under questions I don’t want the answer too. 🙃

POTUS Trump shows some of this but has tempered it so as not to offend non New Yorkers…. At least not TOO much.
I love that scene, too — someone who only knows the game trying to intimidate someone who knows her shit, and getting pounded by reality.
It was so funny when he thought he had won and then she not only pulls the rug out from under him, she kicks him in the gonads while he is laying on the floor.
The best scene in that movie.
Bwahahahahaha .. outstanding ‼️ … I love that scene .. ‼️
YES! YES! A THOUSAND TIMES YES!!!
….
When I got an F in Home Ec in jr high, I had to speak to the Vice Principal who was also my history teacher. Instead of me getting chewed out, the poor guy got a lecture on how instead of Home Ec for girls and Shop for boys the school should be teaching the guys how to cook, wash and iron clothes and the girls how to change a flat, change the oil, replace a spark plug, use a screw driver and a hammer… And EVERYONE should be taught how to balance a checkbook.
I wanted to take shop and drafting (No girls allowed) but instead I was made to take Home Ec so I deliberately flunked it. Since I was straight As otherwise he knew it was deliberate. 🤓
He changed the F to a D and gave up. 😆
I rather enjoyed Home Ec and hated wood shop (metal shop wasn’t available) when I took both as a young lad. It’s not like I could learn to cook from my mom, the *World’s Worst Cook*. And, although I learned quite a bit about shop tools in class, a lot of my carpentry skills were learned while 2nd assistant carpenter with my dad building houses. As it turns out, it’s good to know about scroll saws, band saws, and table saws…..but you use Skilsaws and miter saws when building houses.
But my interest in food really exploded with the original Iron Chef (English subtitles). My interest in wood is based in the Maker movement, luthiery (Brian May of Queen made his own guitars), craft shows, and love of Arts & Crafts and Art Deco (particularly Greene & Greene). My interest in metalworking has been largely informed by my membership with https://www.baemclub.com/.
So I can truthfully say that all attempts to teach shop or home ec to me were bound to be difficult because I’d only begin to appreciate the subjects some years (decades?) later.
One of the things that shop class in my teens really impressed upon me was that all tools were dangerous…..but some were much, much, much, much, much more dangerous than others. This was reinforced in my 20’s when a girlfriend’s grandmother’s live-in boyfriend lost two fingers to a table saw while in his 70’s. He had obviously been thoughtful and cautious for decades, but it got him in the end. SteveinCO knows how dangerous table saws are — he was in the room when one got a friend of his.
Compare this to a scrollsaw. Quite a few people get nicked by a scrollsaw, but almost never does someone get completely amputated.
I learned my wood working skills from an old Army Sargent at the Fort’s woodworking shop when my ex was in the Army.
One of our more treasured members at BAEMclub is Dwight Giles. He learned his skills at Mare Island Naval, and knows a mind-boggling amount about materials and making them behave — everything from watch gears to 16″ propulsion screws..
A running joke in the club is describing how they set out to do something and had it fail. Then they set out to do something a slightly different way and it also failed. Then they went to plan C — go over to Dwight’s and learn how it really should be done.

He talked about how there was a balancing group where they’d take submarine screws (that are supposed to be ultra quiet) and spin’ em….and the balance guys would go in and grind-off slivers on the fore-and-aft of each prop….and they’d be pissed if the prop wasn’t completely silent after one treatment.
To this day I have a large pile of scrap lumber that needs to be cut into kindling…and I can’t bring myself to actually do it.
That’s what my friend was doing. Fortunately, his fingers didn’t come off but recovery was hell.
I managed to escape shop, which is just as well. I was always more of an art and music person anyway.
School home ec was useless. I learned more on my own than in that class. My mother and my grandmother made a lot of their own clothes as well as my sister’s and mine, so I was always around that. I learned to embroider before I was ten. I was doing the laundry at twelve, cleaning like my scrubby Dutch grandmother, too.
Sometimes you have to grow into it.
The men in my house wouldn’t let the ladies change tires. Some of us did cut grass the one place we lived, but now, we don’t even do that.
Roll paint, OTOH, my sister and I did it for years, and taught our brothers when our dad was out of town. Long story.
My Mom was badly hurt when I was nine, big brother was in college and Dad wasn’t home much of the time so I did EVERYTHING, sew, embroider, knit, cook, clean, paint, wallpaper, lay tile, fix the vacuum cleaner, solder, change the oil, spark plugs….
I did not flunk because I could not do the stuff, I flunked as a PROTEST against being forced to take a class I considered useless and being denied the chance to take Shop and Drafting. This was about the same time I was not allowed on the track team although I was the fastest long distance runner in the school by far. (The coach was practically crying over that.)
I have been quietly ornery for most of my life. I just choose my battles carefully.
This is true empowerment.
That looks like it was painted using stencils. That means ease of duplication by non artists 😉
it was painted with stencils….and real artists use stencil.
graffitti artists use stencil freely & extensively…

Of course they do. Heck I MADE stencils and did lino-block carving to do printing in art class.
Somewhere I have something similar to this. 🙃
http://blog.bettina-pauly.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/year-of-the-horse.jpg
HOWEVER Stencils (and lino-blocks) also mean the work can be duplicated and you do not have to be a really good artist to do the duplication.
In season two of HGTV’s Home Town episode has Erin take a design to an artist to make a stencil, then wallpaper for a backsplash
Season 2 Episode 3. There’s an episode where this artist bought a home, and the last episode of season 5 this artist designed the wallpaper for the entryway in the house his aunt purchased.
it was fascinating watching him cut the design into the block and then mixing colors till the right one
this scene plays

I have ZERO wallpaper, but many of the walls are stenciled so it looks like I wall papered them.

👉 the desire for conformity
“What have you done to us, bringing us out of Egypt ? Did we not tell you this in Egypt when we said, ‘leave us alone that we may serve the Egyptians’ ?
Far better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.” – Exodus 14:11-12
FTA…
All forms of slavery are dehumanizing but not all forms of slavery are involuntary. The Israelites lost their identity as a free nation under the oppression of the Egyptians…they became slaves to a distrustful ruling class. Yet they complained and hesitated every step of the way on their journey to freedom in The Promised Land.
👉 we are still capable of making that same mistake now : the pandemic of the past 21 months.

brain food.
highly recommended.
Do not over look these paragraphs:
………………
The question then becomes, WHEN did the elite start conditioning us to ACCEPT the Federal Government’s intrusion upon our freedom, especially our bodily freedom???
………………
1909 — Smoking Opium Exclusion Act in 1909 banned the possession, importation and use of opium for smoking
1913 — Federal Reserve Act & the 16th Amendment.
1915 — JP Morgan & friends buy up the influential newspapers.
1919 — Prohibition (1920 — 1930) gave rise to the FBI
1937 — “Marihuana Tax Act” passed.
1942 — Wickard v. Filburn (1942) FDR & the Commerce Clause. The Supreme Court after being threatened gave the Federal Government the rights hither to for reserved to the States and the People.
….
However it was in the 1970s we saw restrictions really take off.
1970 — Controlled Substances Act (CSA) passed.
1971 — Nixon officially declared a “War on Drugs,”
1973 –The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) created
MORE about the War on Drugs
However drugs were not the only target.
1970 — The Williams-Steiger occupational safety and health act passed
1970 — EPA was established after Nixon signed an executive order Also see the Clean Air Act of 1963 and amended -1970/1977 link
1971 — OSHA was officially established.
…
HELMET LAWS
Motorcycle — CDC
Bike Helmets
There are currently 21 states (+ DC) with state-wide helmet laws in place for [underaged] cyclists.
And horse back riding... Including Western
In the 1980’s, recognition spread among equestrian sports advocates that protective helmets were needed that were tailored to the unique hazards of their sport. — LINK
In 2013, New York’s Governor signed into law an amended helmet law [Bill No. S 2007] (amending prior helmet legislation passed in 2000), that requires minors under 18 to wear a helmet while riding a horse. The 2013 law increases the maximum fine for violators to $250 and imposes the fines on parents or guardians.
….
SMOKING BANS
1964 Study proves tobacco smoking is bad for your health.
Restrictions on smoking in public places, government buildings, and airplanes were implemented in the 1970s, most of which limited but did not ban smoking. In 1973, Arizona became the first state to have some smoke-free public places, and the Civil Aeronautics Board requested no-smoking sections on all commercial airline flights (Koop, 1986).
81.3% of the US population lives under a ban on smoking in “workplaces, and/or restaurants, and/or bars, by either a state, commonwealth, or local law…
…
And that does not even get into the vaccination requirements.
^^^ That’s eye opening.
A few more would be all of the ignorant gun related laws, that should not exist.
Government IS the problem.
I am sure there are a lot more. However you can see the stealth encroachment on our liberties ALWAYS with ‘It is for your own good’ as an excuse. And yet weren’t we actually much SAFER in the 1950s when you could leave the keys in the car while shopping and leave the house door unlocked? When little kids didn’t KNOW what sex was or words like F…ck?
Heck you could hitch hike, cave climb ride someone else’s horse, all without lawyers or criminals (is there any difference now?) getting involved.
There were vagrancy laws and county homes and CHURCH CHARITIES and you didn’t have drug deals going down on the school playground and human feces on the side walks and people were taken care of.
I’m sure the kids DID know the F word, but they also knew what would happen to them if they used it.
Not the little kids. Jr high and up sure but toddlers to 2nd & 3rd grade? Not usually depending on the parents.
True, about the young ones.

They are morally, and spiritually bankrupt .. already
Now it is time for them to lose what the value most $$$$
Note that it’s a Danish store. Store owners are given the discretion as to how restrictive they wish to be… If they want to do 2G (vaxxed, recovered), that’s their choice, but not mandated. If they want to do 1G (vaxxed), same thing. Either way, by being so restrictive, they’ll not be in business much longer. Though the globalists who own them can use COVID as the justification for the shutdown, and write off the expenses of the bankruptcy due to that, and the taxpayers get to pay for it, and the workers get to pay for it with their jobs (and their unemployment comes from the taxpayers too)…..
Depending on the number of ICU beds filled, the requirements for various flavors of lockdowns kick in (or off). This varies by state, and almost seems to vary by day. Same as with Gore-Bull warming, they’re pulling numbers from where the sun don’t shine…..
The only winners in all of this are the discount stores which happen to carry non-foods as well as foods (e.g. Kaufland, ALDI, Lidl, and some others), and of course mail-order houses and Amazon, where Jeff Bezos can add to his $177 BILLION or so…
The beatings will continue until morale improves…

Germany has sunken to low human depravity. They forgot Nazi Germany and are repeating. Where are the voices crying out “Nerer Again”?
It’s not just Germany, it’s all of Europe, driven by the EU, the WHO, and the UN…
The fact that most of the “leaders” of the EU are chldless is neither a coincidence nor an accident…
.Yes that is strange one would think they have children ?
No children means no (easy) close family threats (think of Charles Lindbergh). It also explains their lack of care about future generations (despite all their yapping), and interest in quick profits (and power and prestige) now…
There could also be darker reasons for their being childless (think rituals and dark “religions”) but I’ll leave it at that… Hitler’s inner circle would be a good example…
Seems you are right. Sad though 🙁
I always pair “Never Again!” with “Never Forget!”
The problem is, they forgot. And if you forget, you cannot say “Never Again!” because you don’t know that there is something you want never to happen again.
Actually, the voices crying out Never Again?
They’re probably convinced that the *essence* of dictatorship is white supremacism.
And that can be reinforced by the fact that the Nazis actually were white supremacists.
So non-white-supremacists aren’t a threat, and Never Again cannot possibly apply to them.
Yup. The equating of nazism with racism and antisemitism is why half the current crop of nazis are jazis and blazis.
True
Bayern is next to Austria, and tends to follow some of their idiocy, sad to say. Markus Söder, Ministerpräsident of Bayern (Bavaria) is just as unhinged as some of the greens and the folks who pushed Kurz (of Austria) out.
Baden-Württemberg, the other major “producing” state and co-victim on the attack on the automotive industry is now also run by the greens (with the CDU), despite having a conservative population (similar to Bayern). Seems the deceptions run high and wide anymore. Have to say, I don’t trust the voting results, even though we don’t use voting machines here…
(Seems NTZs resident “bonny” troll has taken to firing away on that thread. Seems he wants gene modifications for everyone and everything.)

BABY LIVES MATTER
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow, that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, amen.

Democrats murdered one of their own, along with Bobby, Martin, and Malcolm X.
Johnson wanted the Presidency. I am firmly convinced he was part of the plot.
Yep. Johnson was unspeakably crooked and perverse, and only the passage of many years has dulled people’s memories of it. He was probably almost as bad as Øbøzø, and certainly did a lot of damage, e.g. Hart-Celler and the 501(C) madness, throttling the Churches, among other things.
Then there was that little thing called the Vietnam war… reminds me of that quote where someone was raked over the coals by their CO who said “I DON’T WANT TO YOU WIN, I WANT YOU TO NOT LOSE!!!!” i.e. a never-ending war…
The DEMONRATS have a long and dark history which people keep forgetting…
It is amazing how many really nast corrupt presidents we have had in the last 100 years. Even Reagan added to the ‘managed decline’ of the USA by not going after the leveraged buyouts that transferred the wealth built up in out AMERICAN corporations to the International Banksters.

The second major mess was thanks to Clinton signing the World Trade Organization Act. Now the WTO writes many of our laws under the guise of “harmonization” with the threat of trade sanctions if we do not comply. It encouraged the export of US jobs overseas while opening our borders to substandard and dangerous food, medicine and other products.
The birds Clinton let loose are now coming home to roost. Clinton was President from 1993 to 2001. Statistics showed in 1990, before WTO was ratified by Clinton, Foreign ownership of U.S. assets amounted to 33% of U.S. GDP. By 2002, just after he left office this had increased to over 70% of U.S. GDP. source: http://www.fame.org/HTM/greg%20Pickup%201%2010%2003%20report.htm
Given those statistics one could state that Clinton sold the USA to foreigners…. “no man’s life, liberty, or property are safe while the Legislature is in session.” — Judge Gideon J. Tucker, Final Accounting in the Estate of A.B. (1866)

The site aims to be aggregator site to facilitate grassroots efforts:
From today’s Anonymous Conservative:
The Senate Democrats are expected to shelve their Build Back Better bill and move forward with their national elections bill that gives them permanent power. Steve Bannon says : “We told you that this is what Mitch McConnell has brought upon us. I told you this was going to happen. He gave them $3 trillion and now he’s given them a pathway to federalize all of these elections which is the only way they can win and they understand that. They understand. They’ve seen the polls. These are not dumb people. These are cunning and crafty people. You could see this a mile away. Rick Scott and the people of the Senate ought to have a conference today and they ought to take the leadership away from Mitch McConnell!”
May they be interrupted .. by God’s Amighty Hand ..
McConnell is not dumb he knows what he is doing he is doing this on purpose. People of KY voted for a snake.

Babies Don’t Keep
Mother, O Mother, come shake out your cloth,
Empty the dustpan, poison the moth,
Hang out the washing, make up the bed,
Sew on a button and butter the bread.
Where is the mother whose house is so shocking?
She’s up in the nursery, blissfully rocking.
Oh, I’ve grown as shiftless as Little Boy Blue,
Lullabye, rockabye, lullabye loo.
Dishes are waiting and bills are past due
Pat-a-cake, darling, and peek, peekaboo
The shopping’s not done and there’s nothing for stew
And out in the yard there’s a hullabaloo
But I’m playing Kanga and this is my Roo
Look! Aren’t his eyes the most wonderful hue?
Lullabye, rockaby lullabye loo.
The cleaning and scrubbing can wait till tomorrow
But children grow up as I’ve learned to my sorrow.
So quiet down cobwebs; Dust go to sleep!
I’m rocking my baby and babies don’t keep.

… 🙂❤️ … yes, in the blink of an eye they’re grown up … but they are your babies always. You just can’t baby them .. anymore (sometimes you can quietly do it though 🤫) ..
“Turn Around” (Kodak Ad from 1960, sung by Ed Ames) comes to mind:
and ABBA, “Slipping Through My Fingers”, from a couple of decades later:
How quickly they grow up… bittersweet, as on the one hand, you treasure their youth and innocence, yet on the other, you love to help them, guide them, and watch them grow.
Seems the deep state and the DEMONRATS want to steal all that innocence and youth from our young, and us as well…
Beautiful!
Watch, Fiddler On The Roof every few months. Great messaging. Love the music.
I had the 8-track and wore it out.
I love the movie, so much heart felt music. I like “Sunrise, Sunset” it tugs the heartstrings .. when your kids grow up .. ❤️
“Sabbath Prayer” is also great…
Oh, man, blocking that one was a bear. And we used real candles in that scene.
Yep. Could be exciting. As was the Bottle Dance… We also had a Fruma Sarah trip during rehearsals.. fortunately no-one was hurt…
Brings it back.
So, in that scene, our Golde hadn’t quite secured her nightgown against her foundation garment, and when she braced herself for the bed spinning, apparently the guys got quite the show.
Yea, it is inspiring.
This is beautiful Gail .. 🙂❤️☺️❤️
